[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps I'm slow (because I only attended a state school after all!), but I would love to understand the parents' thought process here. Is the expectation that the student will transform from someone who requires 23 tutors and curated hobbies into a young adult who can function independently? Or how is that supposed to work out? Do they not think beyond the Ivy admission?[/quote] Parents doing that simply do not think that way. They will do anything to get their kid to HYM and consider them a failure if they don't. They typically have so much money they will continue to pay to prop their kid up. Rather sad way to live IMO [/quote]
